If I had to choose, and it's a topic I don't care about, I'd rather be around haters than stans.

IME haters will leave you alone and interact amongst themselves if you clearly state you couldn't give less of a shit about a topic, but stans are desperate for everybody to like their thing, take your lack of care as an insult, and try pointlessly to defend their thing from your imaginary attack of not-caring until you're sick of them.

Huh weird my experience has been that fans of a thing who just wanna enjoy something in peace will be like "okay" if you dislike it respectfully

But my experience with really passionate haters will callout. Dug up stuff harass fans and constantly talk about hating x thing like its a key component of their personality and they're PROUD of hating this thing and also try to convince the world to hate it like they do and why they're right and people who like it are wrong.

People who are chill about different disliking things are not who I think of when i think of haters though.

Ah ok. Thats maybe a perspective thing. Tbh in fandom I've had too much experience with dedicated haters of a thing who use "stan" to refer to anyone who likes it - usually because the hater doesn't realize how attack-y they word their criticisms.

I know actual obsessive stans DO exist. I just have a lot of experience with people who think stans are just whoever dares like the thing they hate.

My bad :/

Ive bad bad past experiences with some very....all-or-nothing type people.

'IME haters will leave you alone and interact amongst themselves if you clearly state you couldn't give less of a shit about a topic'

Man I'd love to live in your world because I have never seen this happen, haters do in fact want you to hate the thing and will invade spaces for a thing to let fans now how bad their taste is, how dumb they are, or that they've even bad people for liking the thing that they do. So no, I wouldn't rather be around haters tbh.

"will invade spaces for a thing to let fans now how bad their taste is"

That sounds more like they want fans to not like a thing. Not to convince people who don't care or even know about the topic, to hate the thing

I've never had a hater approach me out of nowhere to tell me to hate a show I've never heard of. Obsessive stans of things, however...

DA

"That sounds more like they want fans to not like a thing. Not to convince people who don't care or even know about the topic, to hate the thing"

YEAH and that's SILL OBNOXIOUS behavior. IDK why you're so dead set on defending haters and beating the "but stans are WORSE" drum

Well that's easy. Because ayrt is a hater themself and wants to justify it to themself.

You say this as if that’s still not incredibly rude and fucking annoying behaviour? Being rude to people because they like something is not in any way acceptable.

ngl the more i see you talk in this thread the more i get the vibes you're the kind of person who claims people your friends mistreat in private are lying because they're cool with YOU so clearly THAT person is just the problem.

either way. haters suck your taste in people sucks.
